It is so fun to decorate for Thanksgiving and Christmas, but it is a bummer to take everything down. It makes the whole house look really bare. So I started looking to the next hoiday to spruce it up! I don't usually put up decoration for New Year's, so I started looking for Valentine's Day Printables and haven't found a whole heck of alot so I decided to try my hand at making my own. Since I did all that work, I'll share them with you. I hope you like them. Please leave me a comment to let me know you are taking them. Check back often for more it was kinda fun making these!

The first one is an 8x10 page suitable for framing. Just click the link below and print on a plain ol sheet of typing (lol I just realized that was old school) printer paper at 100% ( no scaling).

Digital Photography Never Looked So Analog!

Ok so I am a Techy-nerdy chick so when I hear of a cool app for my Iphone I just have to check it out.This one is awesome!

Hipstamatic is a photography app that all the cool kids are playing with!This app allows you to change lens, flashes, and films for photos with different effects.I am loving the eighties retro vibe I am getting on these pics!For $10 I have the most rockin analog camera on planet.

With this glorious app you can shoot awesome pic, upload and share with your friends on Flickr and Facebook in a manner of minutes. You can even order these awesome shots straight from your iPhone. Pretty Handy Dandy if you ask me!

Specs:

Cost at time of review : $1.99 (plus $.99 for each of the 4 add –on kits)

I'm so excited about this new challenge I am starting with Toni at A Bowl Full of Lemons on January 1st. If you know me in Real Life and as you will see if you keep reading my blog is that I LOVE organizing. I know I'm a dork but I could spend hours in The Container Store and never get tired. So I was excited to find this great challenge to jump start 2011!

Starting on January 1st and lasting 21 days (except on Sundays)... Every morning I will post a daily challenge for you to do. You will then have until the next day to complete the challenge (or longer if you need), and then check back here and link up your post to my blog for everyone to see (lots of pictures are a plus). Thats it! Simple eh? I promise they will be easy challenges. It's only 3 weeks... you can do it! You will be so happy you did.
